the  case  from  a  superior,  or  a  summons  to  attend  a  military 
court,  shall  receive  ten  cents  mileage,  or,  if  he  prefer  it,  the 
actual  cf>st  of  his  transportation  and  of  the  transportation  of 
his  allowance  of  baggage  for  the  whole  journey,  provided  he  has 


16  QUARTERMASTER'S    DEPARTMENT. 

traveled  in  the  customary  reasonable  manner.  Mileage  will  not 
be  allowed  where  the  travel  is  by    government  conveyances, 

which  will  be  furnished  in  case  of  necessity. 

41.  If  the  journey  be  to  cash  treasury  drafts,  the  necessary 

and  actual  cost  of  transportation  only  will  be  allowed  ;  and  the 
account  must  describe* the  draft  and  state  its  amount,  and  set 
out  the  items  of  expense,  and  be  supported  by  a  certificate  that 
the  journey  was  necessary  to  procure  specie  for  the  draft  at 
par.  ■

orders,  he  shall  report  the  ease  to  the  superior  who  had  authority 
to  order  the  journey  ;  and  his  approval,  if  then  given,  shall  allow 
the  actual  cost  of  transportation'  Mileage  is  computed  by  the 
shortest  mail  route,  and  the  distance  by  the  General  Post-Office 
book.  When  the  distance  cann<5t  be  so  ascertained,  it  shall  be 
reckoned  subject  to  the  decision  of  the  Quartermaster  General.

46.  When  officers  are  permitted  to  exchange  stations,  the

have  been  saved  if  such  exchange  had  not  been  permitted. 

47.  A  paymaster's  clerk  will  receive  the  actual  expenses  of 
his  transportation  while  travelling  under  orders  in  the  discharge 
of  his  duty,  upon  his  affidavit  to  the  account  of  expenses,  and 
the  certificate  of  the    paymaster  that  the  journey  was  on  duty.

money  value  of  the  clothing  which  he  received  at  each  issue, 
for  which  his  receipt  is  entered  in  the  book,  and  witnessed  as  in 
the  preceding  paragraph. 

86.  When  a  soldier  is  transferred  or  detached,  the  amount 
due  to  or  by  him  on  account  of  clothing  will  be  stated  on  his 
descriptive  list. 

87.  When  a  soldier  is  discharged,  the  amount  due  to  or  by

for  the  property  is  required  by  law  "to  show  by  one  or  more 
depositions  setting  forth  the  circumstances  of  the  case,  that  the 
deficiency  was  by  unavoidable  accident  or  loss  in  actual  service, 
without  any  fault  on  his  part,  and  in  case  of  damage,  that  due 
care  and  attention  were  exerted  on  his  part,  and  that  the  damr

WORKING    PARTIES. 

When  it  is  necessary  to  employ  the  army  at  work  on  fortifica- 
tions, in  surveys,  in  cutting  roads,  and  other  constant  labor  of 
not  less  than  ten  days,  the  non-commissioned  officers  and  soldiers 
so  employed  are  enrolled  as  extra-duty  men,  and  are  allowed 
twenty-five  cents  a-  day  when  employed  as  laborers  and  teams- 
ters, and  forty  cents  a  day  when  employed  as  mechanics,  at  all 
stations  east  of  the  Rocky  Mountains,  and  thirty-five  and  fifty 
cents  per  day,  respectively,  at  all  stations  west  of  those  moun- 
tains. 

Enlisted  men  of  the  Ordnance  and  Engineer  Departments, 
and  artificers  of  artillery,  are  not  entitled  to  this  allowance 
when  employed  in  their  appropriate  work. 

Soldiers  shall  not  be  employed  as  extra-duty  men  for  any 
labor  in  camp  or  garrison  which  can  properly  be  performed  by 
fatigue  parties. 

No  extra-duty  men,  except  those  required  fpr  the  ordinary 
service  of  the  Quartermaster,  Commissary,  and  Medical  Depart- 
ments, and  sadlers  in  mounted  companies,  will  be  employed  with- 
out previous  authority  from  department  head-quarters,  except  in 
case  of  necessity,  which  shall  be  promptly  reported  to  the  de- 
partment commander. 

Extra-duty  pay  of  the  soldier  in  a  mounted  company  will  be 
charged  on  the  company  muster-roll,  to  be  paid  by  the  Quarter- 
master and  refunded  by  the  Ordnance  Department.  Extra- 
duty  pay  of  cooks  and  nurses  in  the  hospital  service  will  be  paid 
by  the  Quartermaster,  in  the  absence  of  a  medical  disbursing 
officer,  and  refunded  by  the  Medical  Department. 

The  officer  commanding  a  working  party  will  conform  to  the 
directions  and  plans  of  the  engineer  or  other  officer  directing 
the  work,  without  regard  to  rank. 

A  day's  work  shall  not  exceed  ten  hours  in  summer,  nor  eight 
in  winter.  Soldiers  are  paid  in  proportion  for  any  greater  num- 
ber of  hours  they  are  employed  each  day.  Summer  is  con- 
sidered to  commence  on  the  1st  of  April,  and  winter  on  the  1st 
of  October. 

Although  the  necessities  of  the  service  may  require  soldiers 
to  be  ordered  on  working  parties  as  a  duty,  commanding  officers 
are  to  bear  in  mind  that  fitness  for  military  service  by  instruction 
and  discipline  is  the  object  for  which  the  army  is  kept  on  foot, 
and  that  they  are  not  to  employ  the  troops  when  not  in  the  field, 


116  quartermaster's  department. 

and  especially  the  mounted  troops,  in  labors  that  interfere  with 
their  military  duties  and  exercises,  except  in  case  of  immediate 
-ity,  which  shall  be  forthwith  reported  for  the  orders  of  the 
War  Department. 

PUBLIC  PROPERTY,   BfONBY,  AND  ACCOUNTS. 

All  officers  of  the  Pa}-,  Commissary,  and  Quartermaster's  De- 
partments, and  military  store-keepers,  shall,  previous  to  their 
entering  on  the  duties  of  their  respective  offices,  give  good  and 
sufficient  bonds  to  the  Confederate  States  fully  to  account  for 
all  moneys  and  public  property  which  they  may  receive,  in  such 
sums  as  the  Secretary  of  War  shall  direct;  and  the  officers 
aforesaid  shall  renew  their  bonds  every  four  years,  and  oftencr 
if  the  Secretary  of  War  shall  bo  require,  and  whenever  they  re- 
ceive a  new  commission  or  appointment. 

The  sureties  to  the  bond  shall  be  bound  jointly  and  severally 
for  the  whole  amount  of  the  bond,  and  shall  satisfy  the  Secreta- 
ry of  War  that  they  are  worth  jointly  double  the  amount  of  the 
bond,  by  the  affidavit  of  each  surety,  stating  that  he  is  worth, 
over  and  above  his  debts  and  liabilities,  the  amount  of  the  bond 
or  such  other  sum  as  he  may  specify,  and  each  surety  shall 
state  his  place  of  residence. 

The  chiefs  of  disbursing  departments  who  submit  requisitions, 
for  money  to  be  remitted  to  disbursing  officers,  shall  take  care 
that  no  more  money  than  actually  needed  is  in  the  hands  of  any 
officer.  J 

The  Treasury  Department  having  provided,  by  arrangement 
with  the  assistant  treasurers  at  various  points,  secure  deposito- 
ries for  funds  in  the  hands  of  disbursing  officers,  all  disbursing 
officers  are  required  to  avail  themselves,  as  far  as  possible,  of  this 
arrangement,  by  depositing  with  the  assistant  treasurer  such 
funds  as  are  not  wanted  for  immediate  use,  and  drawing  the 
same  in  convenient  sums  as  wanted. 

No  public  funds  shall  be  exchanged  except  for  gold  and  silver. 
When  the  funds  furnished  are  gold  and  silver,  all  payments  shall 
be  in  gold  and  silver.  When  the  funds  furnished  are  drafts, 
they  shall  be  presented  at  the  place  of  payment,  and  paid  ac- 
cording to  law  ;  and  payments  shall  be  made  in  the  funds  so  re- 
ceived for  the  drafts,  unless  said  funds  or  said  drafts  can  be  ex- 
changed for  gold  and  silver  at  par.  If  any  disbursing  officer 
shall  violate  any  of  these  provisions,  he  shall  be  suspended  by 
the   Secretary   of    War,    and   reported    to   the    President,   and 


quartermaster's  department.  117 

promptly  removed  from  office  or  restored  to  his  trust  and  duties 
as  to  the  President  may  seem  just  and  proper. 

No  disbursing  officer  shall  accept,  or  receive,  or  transmit  to 
the  Treasury  to  be  allowed  in  his  favor,  any  receipt  or  voucher 
from  a  creditor  of  the  Confederate  States  without  having  paid 
to  such  creditor,  in  such  funds  as  he  received  for  disbursement, 
or  such  other  funds  as  he  is  authorized  by  the  preceding  article 
to  take  in  exchange,  the  full  amount  specified  in  such  receipt  or 
voucher;  and  every  such  act  shall  be  deemed  to  be  a  conversion 
to  his  own  use  of  the  amount  specified  in  such  receipt  or  voucher. 
And  no  officer  in  the  military  service  charged  with  the  safe 
keeping,  transfer,  or  disbursement  of  public  money,  shall  con- 
vert to  his  own  use,  or  invest  in  any  kind  of  merchandize  or  pro- 
perty, or  loan  with  or  without  interest,  or  deposit  in  any  bank, 
or  exchange  for  any  funds,  except  as  allowed  in  the  preceding 
article,  any  public  money  intrusted  to  him  ;  any  every  such  act 
shall  be  deemed  to  be  a  felony  and  an  embezzlement  of  so  much 
money  as  may  be  so  taken,  converted,  invested,  used,  loaned, 
deposited,  or  exchanged. 

Any  officer  who  shall  directly  or  indirectly  sell  or  dispose  of, 
for  a  premium,  any  treasury  note,  draft,  warrant,  or  other  pub- 
lic security  in  his  hands  for  disbursement,  or  sell  or  dispose  of 
the  proceeds  or  avails  thereof  without  making  returns  of  such 
premium  and  accounting  therefor  by  charging  it  in  his  accounts 
to  the  credit  of  the  Confederate  States,  will  forthwith  be  dis- 
missed by  the  President. 

If  any  disbursing  officer  shall  bet  at  cards  or  any  game  of 
hazard,  his  commanding  officer  shall  suspend  his  functions  and 
require  him  to  turn  over  all  the  public  funds  in  his  keeping,  and 
shall  immediately  report  the  case  to  the  proper  bureau  of  the 
War  Department. 

All  officers  are  forbid  to  give  or  take  any  receipt  in  blank  for 
public  money  or  property ;  but  in  all  cases  the  voucher  shall  be 
made  out  in  full,  and  the  true  date,  place,  and  exact  amount  of 
money,  in  words,  shall  be  written  out  in  the  receipt  before  it  is 
signed. 

When  a  signature  is  not  written  by  the  hand  of  the  party,  it 
must  be  witnessed.  » 

No  advance  of  public  money  shall  be  made,  except  advances 
to  disbursing  officers,  and  advances  by  order  of  the  War  De- 
partment to  officers  on  distant  stations,  where  they  cannot  re- 
ceive their  pay  and  emoluments  regularly ;  but  in  all  cases  of 
contracts  for  the  performance  of  any  service,  or  the  delivery  of 


118  quartermaster's  department. 

article-  of  any  description,  payment  shall  not  exceed  the  value 
of  the  Bervice  rendered,  or  of  the  articles  delivered,  previously 
to  such  payment. 

No  officer  disbursing  or  directing  the  disbursement  of  money 
for  the  military  service  shall  he  concerned,  directly  or  indirect- 
ly, in  the  purchase  or  sale,  for  commercial  purposes,  of  any  ar- 
ticle intended  for,  making  a  part  of,  or  appertaining  to  the  de- 
partment of  the  public  service  in  which  he  is  engaged,  nor  shall 
take  or  apply  to  his  own 'use  any  gain  or  emolument  for  nego- 
tiating or  transacting  any  public  business  other  than  what  is  or 
may  he  allowed  by  law. 

No  wagon-master  or  forage-master  shall  be  interested  or  con- 
cerned, directly  or  indirectly,  in  any  wagon  or  other  means  of 
transport  employed  by  the  Confederate  States,  nor  in  the  pur- 
chase  or  sale  of  any  property  procured  for  or  belonging  to  the 
Confederate  States,  except  as  the  agent  of  the  Confederate 
States. 

No  officer  or  agent  in  the  military  service  shall  purchase  from 
any  other  person  in  the  military  service,  or  make  any  contract 
with  any  such  person  to  furnish  supplies  or  services,  or  make 
any  purchase  or  contract  in  which  Such  person  shall  he  admitted 
to  any  share  or  part,  or  to  any  benefit  to  arise  therefrom. 

No  person  in  the  military  service  whose  salary,  pay  or  emolu- 
ments is  or  are  fixed  by  law  or  regulations,  shall  receive  any  ad- 
ditional pay,  extra  allowance,  or  compensation  in  any  form  what- 
ever, for  the  disbursement  of  public  money,  or  any  other  service 
or  duty  whatsoever,  unless  the  same  shall  be  authorized  by  law, 
and  explicitly  set  out  in  the  appropriation. 

All  accounts  of  expenditures  shall  set  out  a  sufficient  explana- 
tion of  the  object, 'necessity,  and  propriety  of  the  expenditure. 

The  facts  on  which  an  account  depends  must  be  stated  and 
vouched?  by  the  certificate  of  an  officer,  or  other  sufficient  evi- 
dence. 

If  any  account  paid  on  the  certificate  of  an  officer  to  the  facts 
is  afterwards  disallowed  for  error  of  fact  in  the  certificate,  it 
shall  pass  to  the  credit  of  the  disbursing  officer,  and  be  charged 
to  the  officer  who  gave  the  certificate. 

A14  officer  shall  have  credit  for  an  expenditure  of  money  or 
property  made  in  obedience  to  the  order  of  his  commanding 
officer.  If  the  expenditure  is  disallowed,  it  shall  he  charged  to 
the  officer  who  ordered  it. 

Disbursing  officers,  when  they  have  the  money,  shall  pay  cash, 
and  not  open  an  account.     Heads  of  bureaus  shall  take  care,  by 


quartermaster's  department.  119 

timely  remittances,  to  obviate  the  necessity  of  any  purchase  on 
credit. 

When  a  disbursing  officer  is  relieved,  he  shal]  certify  the  out- 
standing debts  to  his  successor,  and  transmit  an  account  of  the 
same  to  the  head  of  the  bureau,  and  turn  over  his  public  money 
and  property  appertaining  to  the  service  from  which  he  is  re- 
lieved, to  his  successor,  unless  otherwise  ordered. 

This  chief  of  each  military  bureau  of  the  War  Department 
shall,  under  the  direction  of  the  Secretary  of  War,  regulate,  as 
far  as  practicable,  the  employment  of  hired  persons  required  for 
the  administrative"  service  of  his  department. 

When  practicable,  persons  hired  in  the  military  service  shall 
be  paid  at  tiie  end  of  the  calendar  month,  and  when  discharged. 
Separate  pay-rolls  shall  be  made  for  each  month. 

When  a  hired  person  is  discharged  and  not  paid,  a  certified 
statement  of  his  account  shall  be  given  him. 

Property,  paid  for  or  not,  must  be  taken  up  on  the  return, 
and  accounted  for  when  received. 

No  officer  has  authority  to  insure  public  property  or  money. 

Disbursing  officers  are  not  authorized  to  settle  with  heirs, 
executors,  or  administrators,  except  by  instructions  from  the 
proper  bureau  of  the  War  Department  upon  accounts  duly 
audited  and  certified  by  the  proper  accounting  officers  of  the 
Treasury. 

Public  horses,  mules,  oxen,  tools,  and  implements  shall  be 
branded  conspicuously  C.  S.  before  being  used  in  service,  and 
all  other  public  property  that  it  may  be  useful  to  mark  ;  and  all 
public  property  having  the  brand  of  the  C.  S.  when  sold  or  con- 
demned, shall  be  branded  with  the  letter  C. 

No  public  property  shall  be  used,  nor  labor 'hired  for  the  pub- 
lic be  employed,  for  any  private  use  whatsoever  not  authorized 
by  the  regulations  of  the  service.    • 

When  public  property  becomes  damaged,  except  by  fair  wear 
and  tear,  the  officer  accountable  for  the  property  shall  report  the 
case  to  the  commanding  officer,  who  shall  appoint  a  board  of 
survey  of  two  or  more  officers  to  examine  the  property  and  as- 
certain the  cause  and  amount  of  damage,  and  whether  by  any 
fault  of  any  person  in  the  military  service,  and  report  the  facts 
and  their  opinion  to  him  ;  which  report,  with  his  opinion  thereon, 
he  shall  transmit  to  the  chief  of  the  department  to  which  the 
property  appertains,  and  give  a  copy  to  the  officer  accounta- 
ble for  the  property  and  to  the  person  chargeable  for  the 
damage. 


120  quartermaster's  department. 

If  any  article  of  public  property  be  lost  or  damaged  by 
neglect  or  fault  of  any  officer  or  soldier,  he  shall  pay  the  value 
of  such  article,  or  amount  of  damage,  or  cost  of  repairs,  and  be 
proceeded  against  afi  the  Articles  of  War  provide,  if  he  demand 
atrial  by  court-martial,  or  the  circumstances  require  it. 

Charges  against  a  soldier  shall  lie  set  against  his  pay  on  the 
muster-roll.  Charges  against  an  officer  to  be  set  against  his  pay 
shall  be  promptly  reported  to  the  Secretary  of  War. 

If  any  article  of  public  property  be  embezzled,  or  by  neglect 
lost  or  damaged  by  any  person  hired  in  the  public  service,  the 
value  or  damage  shall  be  charged  to  him,  and  set  against  any 
pay  or  money  due  him. 

Public  property  lost  or  destroyed  in  the  military  service  must 
be  accounted  for  by  affidavit,  or  the  certificate  of  a  commissioned 
officer,  or  other  satisfactory  evidence. 

Affidavits  or  depositions  may  be  taken  before  any  officer  in 
the  list,  as  follows,  when  recourse  cannot  be  had  to  any  before- 
named  on  said  list,  which  fact  shall  be  certified  by  the  officer 
offering  the  evidence :  1st.  a  civil  magistrate  competent  to  ad- 
minister oaths;  2d.  a  judge  advocate;  3d. -the  recorder  of  a 
garrison  or  regimental  court-martial  ;  4th.  the  Adjutant  of  a 
regiment ;  5th.  a  commissioned  officer. 

When  military  stores  or  other  army  supplies  are  unsuitable 
to  the  service,  the  officer  in  charge  thereof  shall  report  the  case 
to  the  commanding  officer,  who  shall  refer  the  report,  with  his 
opinion  thereon,  to  the  bureau  of  the  department  to  which  the 
property  appertains,  for  the  order  in  the  case  of  the  Secretary 
of  War.  But  if,  from  the  nature  or  condition  of  the  property 
or  exigency  of  the  service,  it  be  necessary  to  act  without  the 
delay  of  such  reference,  in  such  case  of  necessity  the  command- 
ing officer  shall  appoint  a  board  of  survey,  composed  of  two  or 
more  competent  officers,  to  ^examine  the  property  and  report  to 
him,  subject  to  his  approval,  what  disposition  the  public  interest 
requires  to  be  made  of  it  >  which  he  shall  cause  to  be  made,  and 
report  the  case  to  the  proper  bureau  of  the  War  Department 
for  the  information  of  the  Secretary  of  War.  These  cases  of 
necessity  arise  when  the  property  is  of  perishable  nature  and 
cannot  be  kept,  or  when  the  expense  of  keeping  it  is  too  great 
in  proportion  to  its  value,  or  when  the  troops,  in  movement, 
would  be  compelled  to  abandon  it.  Horses  incurably  unfit  for 
any  public  service  may  also  constitute  a  case  of  necessity,  but 
shall  be  put  to  death  only  in  case  of  an  incurable  wound  or  con- 
tagious disorder. 


quartermaster's  department.  121 

When  military  stores  or  other  army  supplies  are  reported  to 
the  War  Department  as  unsuitable  to  the  service,  a  proper  in- 
spection or  survey  of  them  shall  be  made  by  an  Inspector-Gene- 
ral, or  such  suitable  officer  or  officers  as  the  Secretary  of  War 
may   appoint   for  that  purpose.     Separate   inventories    of  the 
stores,  according  to  the  disposition  to  be  made  of  them,  shall 
accompany  the  inspection  report :  as  of  articles  to  be  repaired, 
to  be   broken  up,   to  be  sold,   of  nj  use   or  value,  and  to  be 
'dropped,  &c,  &c.     The  inspection  report  and  inventories  shall 
show  the  exact  condition  of  the  different  articles. 

Military  stores  and  other  army  supplies  found  unsuitable  to 
the  public  service,  after  inspection  by  an  Inspector-General, 
and  ordered  for  sale,  shall  be  sold  for  cash  at  auction,  on  due 

«>lic  notice,  and  in  such  market  as  the  public  interest  may  re- 
re.  The  officer  making  the  sale  will  bid  in  and  suspend  the 
sale  when,  in  his  opinion,  better  prices  may  be  got.  Expenses 
of  the  sale  will  be  paid  from  the  proceeds.  The  auctioneer's 
verified  account  of  the  sale  in  detail,  and  the  vouchers  for  the 
expenses  of  the  sale,  will  be  reported  to  the  chief  of  the  depart- 
ment to  which  the  property  belonged.  The  net  proceeds  will 
be  applied  as  the  Secretary  of  War  may  direct. 

No  officer  making  returns  of  property  shall  drop  from  his  re- 
turn any  public  property  as  worn  out  or  unserviceable  until  it 
has  been  condemned,  after  proper  inspection,  and  ordered  to  be 
so  dropped. 

An  officer  issuing  stores  shall  deliver  or  transmit  to  the  re- 
ceiving officer  an  exact  list  of  them  in  duplicate  invoices,  and 
the  receiving  officer  shall  return  him  duplicate  receipts. 

When  an  officer  to  whom  stores  are  forwarded  has  reason  to 
suppose  them  miscarried,  he  shall  promptly  inform  the  issuing 
and  forwarding  officer,  and  the  bureau  of  the  department  to 
which  the  property  appertains. 

When  stores  received  do  not  correspond  in  amount  or  quality 
with  the  invoice,  they  will  be  examined  by  a  board  of  survey, 
and  their  report  communicated  to  the  proper  bureau,  to  the 
issuing  and  forwarding  officer,  and  to  the  officer  authorized  to 
pay  the  transportation  account.  Damages  recovered  from  the 
carrier  or  other  party  liable,  will  be  refunded  to  the  proper  de- 
partment. 

On  the  death  of  any  officer  in  charge  of  public  property  or 
money,  the  commanding  officer  shall  appoint  a  board  of  survey 
to  take  an  inventory  of  the  same,  which  he  shall  forward  to  the 
proper  bureau  of  the  War  Department,  and  he  shall  designate 


122  quartermaster's   department. 

an  officer  to  take  charge  of  tin.-  said  property  or  money  till 
orders  in  the  case  are  received  from  the  proper  authority. 

When  an  officer  in  charge  of  public  property  is  removed  froui_ 
the  care  of  it,  the  commanding  officer  shall  designate  an  office* 

to  receive  it,  or  take  charge  of  it  himself,  till  a  successor  he 
regularly  appointed.  Where  no  officer  can  remain  to  receive  it, 
the  commanding  officer  will  lake  suitable  means  to  secure  it,  and 
report  the  facts  to  the  proper  authority. 

Every  officer  having  public  money  to  account  f<>r,  and  failing' 
to  render  his  account  thereof  quarter-yearly,  with  the  vouchers 
necessary  to  its  correct  and  prompt  settlement,  within  three 
months  after  the  expiration  of  the  quarter  if  resident  in  the 
Confederate  Stales,  and  within  six  months  if  resident  in  a  for- 
eign country,  will  be  promptly  dismissed  by  the  President,  unkw 
he  shall  explain  the  default  to  the  satisfaction  of  the  PresidelBf 

Every  officer  intrusted  with  public  money  or  property  shall 
render  all  prescribed  returns  and  accounts  to  the  bureau  of  the 
department  in  which  he  is  serving,  where  all  such  returns  and 
accounts  shall  pass  through  a  rigid  administrative  scrutiny 
before  the  money  accounts  are  transmitted  to  the  proper  offices 
of  the  Treasury  Department  for  settlement. 

The  head  of  the  bureau  shall  cause  his  decision  on  each  ac- 
count to  he  endorsed  on  it.  He  shall  bring  to  the  notice  of  the 
Secretary  of  War  all  accounts  and  matters  of  account  that  re- 
quire or  merit  it.  When  an  account  is  suspended  or  disallowed, 
the  bureau  shall  notify  it  to  the  officer,  that  he  may  have  early 
opportunity  to  submit  explanations  or  take  an  appeal  to  the 
Secretary  of  War. 

When  an  account  is  suspended  or  disallowed  in  the  proper 
office  of  the  Treasury  Department,  or  explanation  or  evidence 
required  from  the  officer,  it  shall  be  promptly  notified  to  him  by 
the  head  of  the  military  bureau.  And  all  vouchers,  evidence, 
or  explanation  returned  by  him  to  the  Treasury  Department 
shall  pass  through  the  bureau. 

Chiefs  of  the  disbursing  departments  shall,  under  the  direc- 
tion of  the  Secretary  of  War,  designate,  as  far  as  practicable, 
the  places  where  the  principal  contracts  and  purchases  shall  be 
made  and  supplies  procured  for  distribution. 

All  purchases  and  contracts  for  supplies  or  services  for  the 
army,  except  personal  services,  when  the  public  exigencies  do 
not  require  the  immediate  delivery  of  the  articles  or  performance 
of  the  service,  shall  be  made  by  advertising  a  sufficient  time 
previously  for  proposals  respecting  the  same. 


quartermaster's  department.  123 

The  officer  advertising  for  proposals  shall,  when  the  intended 
purchase  Or  contract  is  considerable,  transmit  forthwith  a  copy 
of  the  advertisement  and  report  of  the  case  to  the  proper  bureau 
of  the  War  Department. 

Contracts  will  be  made  with  the  lowest  responsible  bidder, 
and  purchases  from  the  lowest  bidder  who  produces  the  proper 
article.  But  when  such  lowest  bids  are  unreasonable,  they  will 
be  rejected,  and  bids  again  invited  by  public  notice  ;  and  all 
bids  and  advertisements  shall  be  sent  to  the  bureau. 

When  sealed  bids  are  required,  the  time  of  opening  them 
shall  be  specified,  and  bidders  have  privilege  to  be  present  at 
.the  opening. 

When  immediate  delivery  or  performance  is  required  by  the 
public  exigency,  the  articles  or  service  required  may  be  pro- 
cured by  open  purchase  or  contract  at  the  places,  and  in  the 
mode  in  which  such  articles  are  usually  bought  and  sold,  or  such 
services  engaged,  between  individuals. 

Contrails  snail  be  made  in  quadruplicate;  one  to  be  kept  by 
the  officer,  one  by  the  contractor,  and  two  to  be  sent  to  the 
military  bureau,  one  of  which  for  the  office  of  the  Second 
Comptroller  of  the  Treasury. 

The  contractor  shall  give  bond,  with  good  and  sufficient  secu- 
rity, for  the  true  and  faithful  performance  of  his  contract,  and 
each  surety  shall  state  his  place  of  residence. 

An  express  condition  shall  be  inserted  in  contracts  that  no 
member  of  congress  shall  be  admit  ted  to  any  share  or  part 
therein,  or  any  benefit  to  arise  therefrom. 

No  contract  shall  be  made  except  under  a  law  authorizing  it, 
or  an  appropriation  adequate  to  its  fulfillment,  except  contracts 
by  the  Secretary  of  War  for  the  subsistence  or  clothing  of  the 
army,  or  the  Quaitcrmaster's  Department. 

It  is  the  duty  of  every  commanding  officer  to  enforce  a  rigid 
economy  in  the  public  expenses. 

All  estimates  for  supplies  of  property  or  money  for  the  public 
service  within  a  department  shall  be  forwarded  through  the 
commander  of  the  department,  and  carefully  revised  by  him. 
And  all  such  estimates  shall  go  through  the  immediate  com- 
mander, if  such  there  be,  of  the  officer  rendering  the  estimate, 
as  of  the  post  or  regiment,  who  shall  be  required  by  the  depart- 
ment commander  to  revise  the  estimates  for  the  service  of  his 
own  command. 

The  administrative  control  exercised  by  department  com- 
manders shall,  when  troops   are  in  the  field,   devolve  on  com- 


124  quartermaster's  deiwktment. 

manders  of  divisions:  or,  when  the  command  is  less  than  a  divis- 
ion, on  the  commander  of  the  "whole. 

No  land  shall  be  purchased  for  the  Confederate  States  except 
under  a  law  authorizing  such  purchase. 

No  public  money  shall  be  expended  for  the  purchase  of  any 
land,  nor  for  erecting  armories,  arsenals,  forts,  fortifications,  or 

other  permanent  public  buildings,  until  the' written  opinion  of 
the  Attorney  General  shall  be  had  in  favor  of  the  validity  of 
the  title  to  the  land  or  site,  nor,  if  the  land  be  within  any  St:itc 
of  the  Confederate  States,  until  a  cession  of  the  jurisdiction  by 
the  Legislature  of  the  State. 

No  permanent  buildings  for  the  army,  as  barracks,  quarters, 
hospitals,  store-houses,  offices,  or  stables,  or  piers,  or  wharves, 
shall  be  erected  but  by  order  of  the  Secretary  of  War.  and  ac- 
cording to  the  plan  directed  by  him,  and  in  consequence  of 
appropriations  made  by  law.  And  no  alteration  shall  be  made 
in  any  such  public  building  without  authority  from  the  War  De- 
partment. 

Complete  title  papers,  with  full  and  exact  maps,  plans,  and 
drawings  of  the  public  lands  purchased,  appropriated,  or  de- 
signed for  permanent  military  fortifications,  will  be  colh 
recorded,  and  filed  in  the  Bureau  of  the  Corps  of  Engineers  ;  of 
the  public  lands  appropriated  or  designated  for  armories,  arsen- 
als, and  ordnance  depots,  will  be  collected,  recorded,  and  filed 
in  the  Ordnance  Bureau ;  of  all  other  land  belonging  to  the 
Confederate  States,  and  under  the  charge  of  the  War  Depart- 
ment for  barracks,  posts,  cantonments,  or  other  military  uses, 
will  be  collected,  recorded,  and  filed  in  the  office  of  the  Quarter- 
master General  of  the  army. 

A  copy  of  the  survey  of  the  land  at  each  post,  fort,  arsenal, 
and  depot,  furnished  from  the  proper  bureau,  will  be  carefully 
preserved  in  the  office  of  the  commanding  officer. 

TROOPS  on  board  of  transports. 

Military  commanders  charged  with  the  embarkation  of  troops, 
and  officers  of  the  Quartermaster's  Department  intrusted  with 
the  selection  of  the  transports,  will  take  care  that  the  vessels 
are  entirely  seaworthy  and  proper  for  such  service,  and  that 
suitable  arrangements  are  made  in  them  for  the  health  and 
comfort  of  the  troops. 

If,  in  the  opinion  of  the  officer  commanding  the  troops  to  be 
embarked,  the  vessel  is  not  proper  or  suitably  arranged,  the 


quartermaster's  department.  125 

officer  charged  with  the  embarkation  shall  cause  her  to  be  in- 
spected by  competent  and  experienced  persons. 

Immediately  after  embarking,  the  men  will  be  assigned  to 
quarters,  equal  parties  on  each  side  of  the  ship,  and  no  man 
will  be  allowed  to  loiter  or  sleep  on  the  opposite  side.  As  far 
as  practicable,  the  men  of  each  company  will  be  assigned  to  the 
same  part  of  the  vessel,  and  the  squads,  in  the  same  manner,  to 
contiguous  berths. 

Arms  will  be  placed,  if  there  be  no  racks,  as  to  be  secure  from 
injury,  and  enable  the  men  to  handle  them  promptly — bayonets 
unfixc<$  and  in  scabbard. 

Ammunition  in  cartridge-boxes  to  be  so  placed  as  to  be  en- 
tirely secure  from  fire ;  reserve  ammunition  to  be  reported  to  the 
master  of  the  transport,  with  request  that  he  designate  a  safe 
place  of  deposit.  Frequent  inspections  will  be  made  of  the  ser- 
vice ammunition,  to  insure  its  safety  and  good  conditidn. 

No  officer  is  to  sleep  out  of  his  ship,  or  to  quit  his  ship,  with- 
out the  sanction  of  the  officer  commanding  on  board. 

The  guard  will  be  proportioned  to  the  number  of  sentinels 
required.  At  sea  the  guard  will  mount  with  side  arms  only. 
The  officer  of  the  guard  will  be  officer  of  the  day. 

Sentinels  will  be  kept  over  the  fires,  with  buckets  of  water  at 
hand,  promptly  to  extinguish  fires.  Smoking  is  prohibited 
between  decks  or  in  the  cabins,  at  all  times  ;  nor  shall  any  lights 
be  allowed  between  decks,  except  such  ship  lanterns  as  the 
master  of  the  transport  may  direct,  or  those  carried  by  the  offi- 
cer of  the  day  in  the  execution  of  his  duty. 

Regulations  will  be  adopted  to  enable  companies  or  messes  to 
cook  in  turn  ;  no  others  than  those  whose  turn  it  is,  will  be 
allowed  to  loiter  around  or  approach  the  galleys  or  other  cook- 
ing places. 

The  commanding  officer  will  make  arrangements,  in  concert 
with  the  master  of  the  vessel,  for  calling  the  troops  to  quarters, 
so  that  in  case  of  alarm,  by  storm,  or  fire,  or  the  approach  of 
the  enemy,  every  man  •may  repair  promptly  to  his  station.  But 
he  will  take  care  not  to  crowd  the  deck.  The  troops  not 
wanted  at  the  guns  or  to  assist  the  sailors,  and  those  who  can- 
not be  advantageously  employed  with  small  arms,  will  be  formed 
as  a  reserve  between  decks. 

All  the  troops  will  turn  out  at  A.  M.,  without  arms  or 
uniform,  and  (in  warm  weather)  without  shoes  or  stockings ; 
when  every  individual  will  be  clean,  his  hands,  face  and  feet 
washed,  and  his   hair  combed.     The  same  personal  inspection 


12G  quartermaster's  department. 

will  be  repented  thirty  minutes  before  sunset.  The  cooks  alone 
may  be  exempt  from  one  of  these  inspections  pet  day,  if  neces- 
sary. 

Recruits  or  awkward  men  will  bo  exercised  in  the  morning 
and  evening  in  the  use  of  arms,  an  hour  each  time,  when  the 
weather  will  permit. 

Officers  will  enforce  cleanliness  as  indispensable  to  health. 
When  the  weatln-r  will  permit,  bedding  will  be  brought  on  deck 
every  morning  for  airing.  Tubs  may  be  fixed  on  the  forecastle 
for  bathing,  or  the  men  may  be  placed  in  the  chains  an  1  have 
buckets  of  water  thrown  over  them.  0 

Between  decks  will  not  be  washed  oftener  than  once  a  week, 
and  only  when  the  weather  is  fine.  The  boards  of  the  lower 
berths  will  be  removed  once  or  twice  a  week  to  change  the 
straw.  Under  the  direction  of  the  Surgeon  and  the  officer  of 
the  day,  frequent  fumigations  will  be  performed  between  decks. 
The  materials  required  are — common  salt,  lour  ounces;  pow- 
dered oxide  of  manganese,  one  ounce  ;  sulphuric  acid  one  ounce, 
diluted  with  two  ounces  of  water.  The  diluted  acid  is  poured 
over  the  other  ingredients  in  a  basin  placed  in  a  hoi  sand-bath. 
Solutions  of  chloride  of  lime  and  chloride  of  zinc  are  excellent 
disinfecting  agents. 

During  voyages  in  hot  weather,  the-master  of  the  vessel  will  ■ 
be  desired  to  provide  wind-sails,  which  will  be  kept  constantly 
hung  up,  and  frequently   examined,  to  see   that  they  draw  well 
and  are  not  obstructed. 

During  cooking  hours,  the  officers  of  companies  visit  the  cam- 
boose,  and  see  that  the  messes  arc  well  prepared.  The  coppers 
and  other  cooking,  utensils  are  to  be  regularly  and  well  washed 
both  before  and  after  use. 

The  bedding  will  be  replaced  in  the  berths  at  sunset,  or  at  an 
earlier  hour  when  there  is  a  prospect  of  bad  weather;  and  at 
tattoo  every  man  not  on  duty  will  be  in  his  berth.  To  insure 
the  execution  of  this  regulation,  the  officer  of  the  day,  with  a 
lantern,  will  make  a  tour  between  decks. 

Lights  will  be  extinguished  at  tattoo,  except  such  as  are  placed 
under  sentinels.  The  officer  of  the  day  will  see  to  it,  and  report 
to  the  commanding  officer.  The  officers'  lights  will  be  extin- 
guished at  10  o'clock,  unless  special  permission  be  given  to  con- 
tinue them  for  a  longer  time,  as  in  case  of  sickness  or  other 
emergency. 

For  the  sake  of  exercise,  the  troops  will  be  occasionally  called 
to  quarters  by  the  beat  to  arms.     Those  appointed  to  the  guns 


quartermaster's  department.  127 

will  be  frequently  exercised  in  the  use  of  them.  The  arms  and 
accoutrements  will  be  frequently  inspected.  The  metalic  parts 
of  the  former  will  be  often  wiped  and  greased  again. 

The  men  will  not  be  allowed  to  sleep  on  deck  in  hot  weather 
or  in  the  sun ;  they  will  be  encouraged  and  required  to  take 
exercise  on  deck,  in  squads  by  succession,  when  necessary. 

At  morning  and  evening  parades,  the  Surgeon  will  examine 
the  men,  to  observe  whether  there  be  any  appearance  of  disease. 

The  sick  will,  as  far  as  practicable,  be  separated  from  the 
healthy  men.  On  the  first  appearance  of  malignant  contagion, 
a  signal  will  be  made  for  the  hospital  vessel  (if  there  be  one  in 
.company,)  and  the  diseased  men  removed  to  her. 

A  good  supply  of  hospital  stores  and  medicines  will  be  taken 
on  each  vessel,  and  used  only  for  the  sick  and  convalescent. 

The  Surgeon  will  guard  the  men  against  costiveness  on  ap- 
proaching a  hot  climate.  In  passing  through  the  West  Indies, 
to  the  Southern  coast  for  instance,  and  for  some  weeks  after 
landing  in  those  latitudes,  great  care  is  required  in  the  use  of 
fruit,  as  strangers  would  not  be  competent  to  judge  of  it,  and 
most  kinds,  after  long  voyages,  are  prejudicial. 

In  harbor,  where  there  is  no  danger  from  sharks,  the  men  may 
bathe;  but  not  more  than  ten  at  a  time,  and  attended  by  a  boat. 

In  fitting  up  a  vessel  for  the  transportation  of  horses,  care  is 
to  beitoiken  that  the  requisite  arrangements  arc  made  for  conve- 
niently feeding  and  cleaning  them,  and  to  secure  them  from  in- 
jury in  rough  weather  by  ropes  attached  to  breast-straps  and 
breeching,  or  by  other  suitable  means;  and  especially  that  pro- 
per ventilation  is  provided  by  openings  in  the  upper  deck,  wind- 
sails,  &C.  The  ventilation  of  steamers  may  be  assisted  by  using 
the  engine  for  that  purpose. 

Horses  should  not  be  put  on  board  after  severe  exei*cise  or 
when  heated.  In  hoisting  them  on  b^ard,  the  slings  should  be 
made  fast  to  a  hook  at  the  end  of  the  fall,  or  the  knot  tied  by 
an  expert  seaman,  so  that  it  may  be  well  secured  and  easily 
loosened.  The  horse  should  be  run  up  quickly,  to  prevent  him 
from  plunging,  and  should  be  steadied  by  guide  ropes.  A  halter 
is  placed  on  him  before  he  is  lifted  from  the  ground. 

On  board,  care  is  to  be  taken  that  the  horses  are  not  over- 
fed; bran  should  form  part  of  their  ration.  The  face,  eyes,  and 
nostrils  of  each  horse  are  to  be  washed  at  the  usual  stable  hours, 
and,  occasionally,  the  mangers  should  be  washed  and  the  nostrils 
of  the  horses  sponged  with  vinegar  and  water. 


1l'n  quartermaster's  department. 

In  loading  vessels  witb  stores  for  a  military  expedition,  the 
cargo  of  each  should  be  composed  of  an  assortment  of  such 
stores  as  may  be  available  for  service  in  case  of  the  non-arrival 
of  others,  and  they  Bhoold  be  placed  on  board  in  such  a  manner 
that  liny  may  be  easily  reached,  in  the  order  in  which  they  are 
required  for  service.  Each  store-ship  Bhoold  be  marked,  at  the 
bow  and  stern,  on  both  sides,  in  large  characters,  with  a  distinc- 
tive letter  and  number.  A  list  is  to  be  made  of  the  stores  on 
board  of  each  vessel,  and  of  the  place  where  they  are  to  be 
found  in  it;  a  copy  of  this  list  to  be  sent  to  the  chief  officer  of 
the  proper  department  in  the  expedition,  or  at  the  place  of  des- 
tination. 

BATTLES. 

Before  the  action,  the  quartermaster  of  the  division  makes  all 
the  necessary  arrangements  for  the  transportation  of  the  wound- 
ed. He  establishes  the  ambulance  depots  in  the  rear,  and  gives 
his  assistants  the  necessary  instruction  for  the  service  of  the  am- 
bulance wagons  and  other  means  of  removing  the  wounded. 

The  ambulance  depot,  to  which  the  wounded  are  carried  or 
directed  for  immediate  treatment,  is  generally  established  at  the 
most  convenient  building  nearest  the  field  of  battle.  A  red  flag 
marks  its  place,  or  the  way  to  it,  to  the  conductors  of  the  am- 
bulances and  to  the  wounded  who  can  walk. 

The  active  ambulances  follow  the  troops  engaged  to  Succor 
the  wounded  and  remove  them  to  the  depots ;  for  this  purpose 
the  conductors  should  always  have  the  necssary  assistants,  that 
the  soldiers  may  have  no  excuse  to  leave  the  ranks  for  that  ob- 
ject. 

The  medical  director  of  the  division,  after  consultation  with 
the  Quartermaster-General,  distributes  the  medical  officers  and 
hospital  attendants  at  his  disposal,  to  the  depots  and  active  am- 
bulances. He  will  send  officers  and  attendants,  when  practica- 
ble, to  the  active  ambulances,  to  relieve  the  wounded  who  re- 
quire treatment  before  being  removed  from  the  ground.  He 
will  see  that  the  depots  and  ambulances  are  provided  with  the 
necessary  apparatus,  medicines,  and  stores.  He  will  take  post 
and  render  bis  professional  services  at  tbe  principal  depot. 

If  the  enemy  endanger  the  depot,  the  quartermaster  takes 
the  orders  of  the  General  to  remove  it  or  to  strengthen  its 
guard. 

Tbe  wounded  in  the  depots  and  the  sick  are  removed,  as  soon 
as  possible,  to  the  hospitals  that  have  been  established  by  the 


yl'ARTERMASTEll'S    DEPARTMENT.  129 

Quartermaster-General  of  the  army  on  the  flanks  or  rear  of  the 
army. 

After  an  action,  the  officers  of  ordnance  collect  the  munitions 
of  war  left  on  the  field,  and  make  a  return  of  them  to  the  Gene- 
ral. The  Quartermaster's  Department  collects  the  rest  of  the 
public  property  captured,  and  makes  the  return  to  head-quarters. 

BAGGAGE  TRAINS. 

The  baggage  train  of  general  head-quarters  and  the  trains  of 
the  several  divisions  arc  each  under  the  charge  of  an  officer  of 
the  Quartermaster's  Department.  These  officers  conduct  and 
command  the  trains  under  the  orders  they  receive  from  their  re- 
spective head-quarters.  When  the  trains  of  different  divisions 
march  together,  or  the  train  of  a  division  marches  with  the  train 
of  general  head-quarters,  the  senior  quartermaster  directs  the 
whole. 

The  Assistant-Quartermaster  has  charge  of  the  wagons, 
horses,  equipments,  and  all  means  of  transport  employed  in  the 
service  of  the  regiment.  Under  the  orders  of  the  Colonel,  he 
assembles  them  for  the  march,  and  maintains  the  order  and 
police  of  the  train  in  park  and  on  the  march.  On  marches,  the 
regimental  trains  are  under  the  orders  of  the  quartermaster  of 
the  division.  When  the  march  is  by  brigade,  the  senior  A- 
tant-Quartermaster  in  the  brigade,  or  the  quartermaster  of  the 
brigade,  has  the  direction  of  the  whole.  The  necessary  wagon- 
mastery,  or  non-commissioned  officers  to  act  as  such,  are  em- 
ployed with  the  several  trains. 

None  but  the  authorized  wagons  are  allowed  to  march  with 
the  train.  The  wagons  of  the  several  head-quarters,  the  regi- 
mental wagons  and  the  wagons  of  sutlers  authorized  by  orders 
from  head-quarters  to  march  with  the  train,  are  all  to  be  con- 
spicuously marked. 

When   the   train    of   head-quarters   is  to  have  a   guard,   the 

ength  of  tiie  guard  is  regulated  by  the  General.  Generals  of 
Brigade  guard  their  trains  by  the  men  attached  to  the  train  of 
the  first  regiment  of  their  brigades.  The  regimental  trains  are 
loaded,  unloaded,  and  guarded,  as  far  as  practicable,  by  conva- 
lescents and  men  not  effective  in  the  ranks;  in  the  cavalry, 
dismounted  men.  When  the  guard  of  a  train  is  the  escort  for 
its  defence,  the  regulation-  in  regard  to  convoys  and  escorts 
lake  effect. 

Habitually   each  division  is   followed    by  its  train,  the  regi- 
mental train  uniting  af   the  brigade  rendezvous.     When  other?

The  following  Regulations  having  been  adopted  by  the  Secre- 
tary of  War,  are  hereby  promulgated  for  the  information  of  the 
Army. 

DBSEBTERS. 

If  a  soldier  desert  from,  or  a  deserter  be  received  at,  any 
post  other  than  the  station  of  the  company  or  detachment  to 
which  be  belonged,  he  shall  be  promptly  reported  by  the  com- 
manding officer  of  such  post  to  the  commander  of  his  company 
or  detachment.  The  time  of  desertion,  apprehension,  and  de- 
livery will  be  stated.  If  the  man  be  a  recruit,  unattached,  the 
required  report  will  be  made  to  the  Adjutant  General. 

When  a  report  is  received  of  the  apprehension  or  surrender 
of  a  deserter  at  any  post,  other  than  the  station  of  the  company 
or  detachment  to  which  he  belonged,  the  commander  "of  such 
company  or  detachment  shall  immediately  forward  his  descrip- 
tion and  account  of  clothing  to  the  officer  making  the  report. 

A  reward  of  thirty  dollars  will  be  paid  for  the  apprehension 
and  delivery  of  a  deserter  to  an  officer  of  the  Army  at  the  mosl 
convenient  post  or    recruiting   station.      Rewards    thus  paid  will 

be  promptly  reported  by  the  disbursing  officer  to  the  officer  com- 
manding the  company  in  which  the  deserter  is  mustered,  and  to 
the  authority  competent  to  order  his  trial. 

The  reward  of  thirty  dollars  will  include  the  remuneration  for

No  deserter  shall  be  restored  to  duty  -without  trial,  except  by 
the  authority  competent  to  order  the  trial. 

Rewards  and  expenses  paid  for  apprehending  a  deserter,  will 
be  set  against  *his  pay,  when  adjudged  by  a  court  mwtial,  or 
when  he  is  restored  to  duty  without  trial  on  such  condition. 

In  reckoning  the  time  of  service,  and  the  pay  and  allowances 
of  a,  deserter,  he  is  to  be  'considered  in  service  when  delivered 
.up  as  a  deserter  to  the  proper  author 

An  apprehended  deserter,  or  one  who  surrenders  himself,  shall 
receive  n*o  pay  while  waiting  trial,  and  only  such  clothing  as  may 
be  actually  necessary  for  him.
